It may not have anything to do with FoilTeX. I've noticed in LyX 1.2.3
that typing the LaTeX font commands in math mode (either typing \mathtt
{...} directly or hitting the TeX/ERT button and then typing mathtt{...})
does not work -- your LaTeX file ends up with the braces but not with the
command itself. However, you can do the desired font switches by
selecting the target characters and either using the font button on the
math editor panel or using the corresponding key combination (such as M-c
p in lieu of \mathtt). This is true in all classes that I've tried.
